SANDLESS REFINISHING

The post today is about sandless refinishing also known as screen and coat.
This process has been around for a long time but it is
not to be confused with sanding and refinishing which is a much more extensive process.
If your floors are in relatively good shape with minimal scracthes and no stains sandless refinishing may be a good way to go.
It will brighten your floors and bring them back to their original luster.
However it will entail having a professional look at them to determine if you need more than this. 
If you have questions regarding a screen and coat do not hesitate to call.
